A Speci cation Language for Uncertain Knowledge Models

We extend the language (ML), which was designed to describe models of expertise in a formal way with an explicit model of uncertainty. Doing this we follow a framework for modeling uncertain expertise which has been presented elsewhere. We review the language (ML)2and the framework for uncertain expertise. Finally we present the language FLUE (Formal Language for Uncertain Expertise) which is the result of extending the syntax of (ML)with concepts to describe uncertain parts of a model of expertise. We end with a brief discussion of bene ts and open problems. Topics. Languages and Frameworks for Knowledge and Knowledge Modeling, Fundamental Views on Knowledge (i.e. Handling of Uncertain Knowledge)
